Monash Health

This is the official Monash Health Facebook page.

Monash Health is the largest health service in Victoria.

We provide health care across the entire lifespan – from pre-birth, newborn babies and children, to the aged, their families and carers.

Services are provided through more than 40 locations across south-east Melbourne Victoria, including:
• high acuity teaching and research hospitals and community hospitals
• mental health through hospital, community and outreach services
• chronic disease management
• primary care through community health centres
• prevention and early intervention.

Our hospitals include Monash Medical Centre, Monash Children's Hospital, Moorabbin Hospital, Dandenong Hospital, Casey Hospital, the Kingston Centre and Cranbourne Integrated Care Centre.

And our community health centres are located in Berwick, Cockatoo, Cranbourne, Dandenong, Doveton, Pakenham and Springvale.

We specialise in paediatrics, cardiology, women's health, kidney and pancreas transplants and neonatal intensive care. Through our university affiliations we are a major provider of education and training for the next generation of health professionals and the major clinical partner in research that is advancing knowledge and clinical care.

We are a member of the Monash Health Translation Precinct with Monash University and the Hudson Institute of Medical Research. We are also in partnership with other leading educational institutions such as Deakin and LaTrobe Universities.

At Monash Health we work together to achieve exceptional care and outstanding outcomes. Meeting the special needs of our diverse community, which includes socio-economically disadvantaged and culturally and linguistically diverse people, is a priority.

We work together with: Integrity, Compassion, Accountability, Respect and Excellence, to plan and deliver quality, person-centred health care and services, education and research that meets the needs of our community.
